Hey everyone! My name is Ryan. I am a cosplay and portrait photographer based out of Houston, Texas. I am so glad that you came by my site to visit! I hope that you enjoy all of my galleries!
I got into photography in 2007 when my mom decided to make the transition from film to digital. She offered me the opportunity to use an old SLR that she had for years and years. As such, I was officially the owner of my very first SLR.
For the most part, I am self-taught. For the longest time I would only shoot using natural light. The art of photography is to capture light itself, and I believed I had little need for strobes or flashes. As I started taking more interest in conceptual photography, I started to break free of that train of thought.
In 2016, I converted a spare bedroom into a small home studio that I can use for portraiture and more fine tuned conceptual work. Though the studio space is still new to me, it's quickly become something I am incredibly passionate about, and on the days I'm not working my regular job, I try to spend my time there.
If you are interested in booking a shoot with me, please do not hesitate to contact me! I would love to shoot you with my Canon!

Sweet Dreams *woot* *woot*
Well I have some good news to report!- I had sweet dreams last night, even after a very stressfull day, you know with falling off that cliff and all that.
I fell asleep with my laptop facing me from my desk with my Scooby Doo Scariest Capers Video playing. I started with Hassle in the Castle, and was asleep by the time they found out it was Bluestone the Great who did it. This was around 2am, and I slept quite a mighty sleep until 12noon. I remembered my dreams when I awoke, but now at the present time, I can't remember. I do know however that they were not scary or frightening, but rather quite nice. This is because I remember waking up with some good feelings. I was however woken by a wretched noise that once your awake does not seem wretched, but when your sensitive to atmosphere in your sleep it can be quite overpowering and put you on edge until you put together what is going on; which I should mention can be a good 20min later.
Truthfully I was expecting to have a horrible sleep last night as I followed through with all the faux-pas of having night terrors, but yet I was shocked! I had 2eggs and 2pieces of toast about two hours before bed, (so about 12midnight), I was extremely tired and physically exhausted, and had a very trying day. And yet, I slept marvelously!
I was thinking of starting a support group for people who suffer from parasomnia. I'm unsure of how I would do this but it's a thought in process.

Love love this car! Out of the big three (Mustang, Camaro & Challenger), this bad boy just oozes old school cool. Where the Mustang and Camaro have taken design elements from past models, the designers at Dodge cleaned up the lines from the old car, added new front and rear head lights for functionality, designed a new front bar to match and off to the factory it went and we thank them for that.
Body portions are plentiful contradicted by its interior space that only just manages to sit 4 adults. However, its a comfy interior with all modern day luxury tech one expects. The drive from LA to Vegas is 3 hours and by the end of it, we got out still feeling fresh. It was comfy and just firm enough to that it didn't feel like we riding on a cloud. The 8-speed auto box works well but has nothing on its European or Japanese counterpart. In auto it's perfect but the manual Tiptronic is pointless if anything gimmicky. The Hemi 6.4L V8 has a mountain of torque that pulls like a freight train and has no problem cruising in 3 digit m/ph ( do the maths, =P ).
What dodge has created is a car that allows chumps like us, who is after the muscle car experience without the expense, skills or time required for a 100K restoration project. Its big boy that doesn't make any sense, but we love it, and that's what muscle cars are really all about.
John: You get the same attention as if you were driving a Ferrari without the "tool" stigma attached, having such an aggressive stance with its muscle car reputation (being a badass) people just kind of get out the way for you, and if they don't, you put your foot down and blast past them, lol. It's not a touge monster or track car- there are Porches and light weight cars like the MX5, S2000 and BRZ/GT86 for that, but on the open roads, or in the states where motorways makeup for the majority of the road network, it makes sense. Sometimes all you want to do is sit back, put it in drive, play a solid tune- loud and watch the world pass you by- it's like wearing your favorite black leather jacket, it will never get old and will be forever cool.

Scott Pilgrim vs The World
E3 Trailer
Hmm, not too big of a fan of the comics (artstyle sucks imo), but still, this looks like an awesome beat-em-up ala Double Dragon
i think this is one of the few games i saw at E3 that got me excited.
Just the combination of Paul Robertson's art, Anamanaguchi as the soundtrack, Scott Pilgrim setting and all that in beat em up gameplay.
Too aweseome.
Paul Robertson is GOD, he created the sprites in this game, he just rocks!
Well the artstyle of the game is pretty epic in my opinion. Very reminiscent of the SNES/GBA/etc. days of gaming.
Why is Ramona a playable character? I mean, isn't she supposed to be mostly watching the fights?
If you watch the movie trailer you actually see her with a giant sledgehammer type thing. I guess she gets in on the ass-kicking.
This game looks really cool. I'm surprised this is coming out for PSN; It seems more like Nintendo's thing. Cool, though, because my PSP doesn't get enough use. I'm definitely getting this. It's cool the devs went with the comic art's approch; now they can be as ridiculous as they want with the gameplay.
Never read the comics, but I can't resist a good beat-em-up.
This game looks tight.
PSN only? Blah, but whatever, as long as it has Online Co-Op, im gonna be one happy camper. This game looks like an instant classic.
Just glad to finally see some gameplay, even the regular images had me hyped for this game, now i cant wait . (Gonna keep me busy until the fated day they announce Simpsons Arcade and Xmen Arcade for XBLA/PSN)
Also.....never read the comics myself (Plan to watch the movie, then read the comics later), but why does this game have 2 playable Ramona's? (Unless its just 2 characters that look extremely alike, or im an idiot
That looks like a total parody on typical beat-em-ups and similar games with boosts and so forth (like the Golden Axe).
Looks kinda like the art style of Kings of Power 4 Billion%
ramona has seven ex-boyfriends? so basically she is a slut...
I wish it was coming out for WiiWare. Another game I don't get to play.
It will most likely come out on WiiWare.
They might be seeing how well it goes on PSN first then put it on XBL then WiiWare.
Looks like the Wii can handle it but it might not

The Simulation
Due to the recent developments, the simulation is being recreated with R and Java. More information about the new model will be added as the simulation advances.
2015-16 Previous NetLogo Simulation
In order to visually demonstrate the drastic effects of Palmer amaranth, the Palmer Project used NetLogo software to model the spread. NetLogo is a "multi-agent programmable modeling environment" and can be used to easily and visually model problems from disease evolution to urban economic disparity.
By coding in various factors, such as field type, current infestation locations, and seed travel distance, the Palmer Project team created a preliminary model in 2015 of where Palmer amaranth infestations would be in 25 years in Iowa. Currently, the team is working on expanding this model to cover the entire Midwest. They are also refining the model by including more risk factors revealed by increased research and interviews with the farming community.

For the first time, ThunderKid is coming to Intervention! Intervention is an internet convention that began as a way of inspiring the whole family to get into the many facets that the internet has to offer including webcomics, digital media, and blogs. The event was founded and is run by comic artist and blogger Onezumi Hartstien and web developer James Harknell. This year marks Intervention's fourth year since its conception back in 2010.
ThunderKid began as a webcomic back in 2006 on the Tokyopop website and relaunched it on our current website in 2007. The series has seen nearly eight chapter long adventures with the next three in the works, its first complete volume that has sold over 250 copies since release, and it will see its second volume shortly after the completion of its tenth chapter. We continue to encourage family involvement in the ThunderKid series as it is an all-inclusive, all-ages comic series. This weekend ThunderKid will be among many other webcomic and web developers in this convention. Intervention also marks the first official convention scene that ThunderKid has been involved in since our last one at Anime Expo 2011, and we hope to continue attending select conventions in the future. We hope not only to reach out to the community as a whole, but also to reach families within these conventions specifically to embrace and encourage the moral and family values that ThunderKid promotes and we intend to have fun doing it!
Intervention begins on Friday August 23rd at noon and will conclude on Sunday August 25th at four o' clock. ThunderKid be set up in the Vendor Room along with the many other talented artists and vendors on hand. We look forward to bringing Denki, Haruka, Natsumi, and the rest of the ThunderKid gang to a whole new convention this year and for years to come!

The utilization of contingent talent is growing in both nonprofit and for-profit sectors. In 2015, the U.S. Government Accountability Office estimated that at least one-third of the U.S. workforce is made up of contingent workers. The growth of this subset is in response to a variety of factors such as rising labor and benefits costs, a need for flexibility in budget and staffing and the rising importance of specialized skillsets.
If your nonprofit is like many others and is making a shift away from hiring exclusively "traditional" full-time talent, Nonprofit HR can help. Our Talent Acquisition team has access to a deep network of contingent nonprofit talent and can pair your organization with the temporary, temp-to-hire and contract talent you need to advance your mission.
Nonprofit HR works with both nonprofits and mission-driven organizations that are committed to making an impact on the social sector.

All animals are processed thru a minimum of a two week quarantine when they come to Rikki's. We cannot risk any of our residents catching something from "the outside world". Our residents are our first concern. When a new resident joins us they go into quarantine. In the case of cats, it's usually two weeks, unless there are "issues". Like persistent worms, a bad case of ear mites, they get sick during their two weeks or they need additional veterinarian work like neutering or spaying or a current rabies vaccination or a dental.
We have an extensive parasite prevention program because we simply cannot afford to have all of our animals infected by parasites brought in by one animal. An otherwise healthy and "ready to go" cat receives two preventative parasite treatments as well as a physical and any needed vaccinations. They are treated for fleas and ticks, ear mites, mange mites, a whole host of possible internal parasites and given vaccinations. The typical cat will have his or her ears cleaned and mite prevention dripped in. They will receive a capsule of worming meds and 2 cc of liquid worming meds. They get an injection for mites and other parasites and one for distemper and those other nasty things. Then they get flea drops. If they didn't come with a current rabies certificate or it's due to expire soon, they also get a trip to the vet to update that. A full exam includes various body orifices being poked and prodded, otoscope in ears, thermometers in unpleasant places, eyes examined, mouth pried and held open so teeth can be examined - visually we hope but all too often with the ferals we get to feel first hand how well those teeth are working - stethoscope pressed against chest and abdomen, nails clipped - often after being extracted from human flesh.
And two weeks later it's all repeated. And if all looks well at that time they get to move into their new cat house. We have 8 temporary pens for cat quarantine that can hold up to six cats each. Some will have to be quarantined in cages in our hospital. When a family comes in together we prefer to keep them together in a temp pen than in individual cages. it's much more homey and much less scary. Lots of kitties who've come to Rikki's in the last 8 months thank Ron for the temp pens.
These kitties have been captured in their temp pens and brought up to the hospital for "processing".

The drop-off recycling site at North Kenner Park is still available for use despite a fire discovered in the container earlier this week, Kenner officials said Thursday.
Ramelli Waste, the city's recycling contractor, has found a temporary replacement for the bin, which was damaged by a fire Monday night. The cause of the fire is unknown, though a police report has been filed.
Ramelli said the replacement container, located off 38th Street between Williams Boulevard and Martinique Avenue, will look different from the original and won't be marked with a "City of Kenner" sticker. The original bin will be brought back when it is repaired.
Anyone with information about the fire is asked to contact the Kenner Police Department at (504) 712-2222 or Crimestoppers at (504) 822-1111.

WordHaste is similar game to Scrabble and Boggle. For those who are looking for a change from the same old look and format, they can go for WordHaste that was released yesterday.
The specialty of this game is that it mixes the rules of both the games, Scrabble and Boggle. The game takes place on a Scrabble board and more than two players can be issued the same letters. Within a span of 2.5 minutes, the player with the most words wins the game.
The beauty of this game is even 10 to 20 players can play the game in rounds. If you're unsure as to whether you will like the game or not, you can try it out on the developer's website first with the fully playable Silverlight version available over there.

Poiré is a traditional beverage made in Normandy by the fermentation of Pear Juice. It is made of several Pear Varieties such as Plant de Blanc, Muscadet, Avenelle and Poire de Grise. Quickly crushed after picking, the pear juice ferments naturally for 5 to 8 weeks. Poiré is bottled in the middle of the fermentation process. Fermentation then continues inside the bottle: sugar is transformed into alcohol with natural production of carbonic gas with resulting bubbles.
Tasting Notes:
Very clear colour with gold high lights. Nose is delicate with pear flavours and citrus hints. Mouth is refreshing both fruity and dry. How to enjoy Poiré : Poiré is a light, elegant and refreshing drink which can be enjoyed as an aperitif. Recommended starters pairings : terrines, shellfish (excellent with oysters), salads (artichoke, endive, curly endive). Main Course : steamed fish Dessert: fruit sorbets, strawberries.
A tasting glass as for wine is the best - (I.N.A.O. glass)
"This is the type of poire cidre which would easily substitute a sparkling wine on any dinner table. It had class and sophistication and was elegantly poised. It offered up everlasting generosity which would make any cider lover happy. A very nice Domfrontais poire cidre indeed. "

In honor of St. Patrick's Day and all of the Irish blessings that are quoted today, we thought we'd tap into some of the ways different cultures bless their new homes before moving in. A lot of people conduct rituals to clear out any negative energy, bring prosperity and even babies!
Have a House Warming Party
Fill your space with love and joy by throwing a house warming party! This is one of the most common traditions across the board, but some believe that having so much positive energy from friends and loved ones can ward away any evil spirits still left in the home! Others just find this to be a great way to get new presents for their new home! (Kidding, but not really).
Buy New Cleaning Supplies
The ancient Chinese tradition of Feng Shui says to throw out your old brooms and mops and buy new ones before bringing them into your new home so that you don't bring any of the old dirt or troubles with you.
Bread and Salt
Jewish tradition suggests bringing bread and salt to a new home to make sure that through hard word, you are always able to eat.
Pick the Right Move Date
You can check a zodiac calendar, Chinese calendar, moon calendar or any type of calendar that will let you look at "lucky" dates. It's best to pick one of these as your move-in date.
Burn Sage
Burning dried sage is a Native American tradition that is thought to clear out negative energy and ward off evil spirits. There is a specific way this should be done if you're interested:
To perform the ritual, you need a bundle of white sage, wrapped with thread and accompanied by lavender or other fragrant herbs. Light the sage in a fire resistant bowl and let it smoke on its own. Then, walk around the house clockwise (starting at the front door) and wave the smoke in the air, making sure it gets to every corner of every room (corners are where negative energy tends to accumulate).
Boil Milk
Boiling milk (and rice) in Hindu culture until the milk overflows the pot is thought to bring a long life, purity and an abundance of food to the new home. You are supposed to serve some to your guests as well.
Do you have any rituals you like to do before moving into a new home? Share them with us! For now, we leave you with an Irish house blessing and wish you a Happy St. Patrick's Day!
"May your troubles be less, your blessings be more, and nothing but happiness come through your door."

There several factor that give rise to the outcome of a courtroom case, including: the skill associated with an attorney, the attitude of some sort of judge, the attitude of a jury and the grade of depositions. The utmost three factors are renowned, but the influence that depositions can show within the result of a case is often ignored. Depositions are often known as straightforward affairs.
But if you might have much experience deposing witnesses, then you certainly know that depositions can consist of smooth question and answer times to long, drawn out affairs where a deponent is anything but forthcoming. In the first case, the grade of a deposition is determined through an attorney's acute questions and also a deponent's willingness to answer. Playing with the second case, the quality of a deposition is often determined to some extent by deposition reporters.For the Advancing Court Reporting Through Technology & Service with the arizona court reporter browse the web.
Even as soon as deponents are small lipped, most depositions still create the record of truth. But sometimes, that truth is revealed by a deponent as modulation of voice, physical demeanor & non-verbal utterances, which an astute deposition reporter will incorporate in the deposition transcript. But the challenge is always to find deposition reporters that possess the professionalism to remain on point throughout the course of such depositions. Just as attorneys become frustrated with irritating deponents that don't give substantial answers, so can deposition reporters. Thus, it's important to evaluate reporters on a lot more than their experience and certifications, specially their personal views and threshold for boredom.

All I can say is that your invention has solved one of my life's little problems and stress has been relieved over delivery of bulky goods!"
(Richard Barnes-Gorell, Andover)
"The order process is excellent with a sense of genuine interest about customers. My Hippo Box arrived on time and was easy to fit. The quality of the product stands out - this is worth every penny - how good it is to receive something where thought has gone into the design. Having received my first orders delivered to the box, I can honestly say how thrilled I am that I don't have to worry anymore when I order goods online. Everything now says c/o My Hippo Box - how easy is that!!"
(Gill. G, Brighton)
"I very much appreciated the high quality of service I received, and in particular your very excellent personal attention. The box arrived safe and sound and is now installed on the front of the house. Many thanks."
(M Beard, Exter, Devon)
"I absolutely LOVE my Hippo box - I cannot begin to calculate how many hours of frustration and redelivery it has saved me."
(Ms M Hyde -London)
"The box itself is exremely well made, works well and looks like it has always belonged at the front of our house- we have had many deliveries over the Christmas period dropped off in the box which has paid off in terms of dramatically reduced hassle. Overall we are very, very pleased .. and with the level of service you provided with your prompt delivery."
(S Handley - Reading)
"We recently bought one of your Hippo boxes and are very happy with it. With both of us working it got very tedious having to keep going to the local sorting office on a Saturday morning. We have already had a couple of wine deliveries anda Lakeland delivery that would not have been possible without it."
(Mark McLellan, London)
"a superb piece of kit ....will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks."
(M Firth, Gestingthorpe, Essex)
"I can't imagine life without my Hippo, it has made receiving deliveries so easy."
(G Martin, Bristol)
"I bought one and it is invaluable for my eBay purchases."
(Dr David Kelly -Slough)
"Getting something out of our Hippo Box today I was reminded we have had it two years and not only has it saved us countless trips to collect missed deliveries but it is standing up really well to the British weather.Such a simple but useful idea!"
(Chris Macleod, London)
"I just wanted to write to say how pleased I am with my Hippo parcel box. It looks good, is well made and does just what you say - taking all the hassle out of getting deliveries. It has saved me hours of travelling to and fro to depots and standing in queues. I now recommend Hippo boxes to all my friends".
(T Woodward -Acton)
"Am I pleased with it? You bet!"
(Al Crawford. Grantham)
"Just wanted to say how impressed we are with your company. It's very refreshing to deal with a company that provides such excellent customer service and a very well made product. And our postman says it's the best mailbox he's ever seen."
(C. Dew - Scotland)
"The Hippo box has made a big difference to our ability to get stuff via mail order. We both work, so find it difficult to be in for deliveries. And it's a right pain going to the local sorting office because you forget to take the identification you need to collect a parcel. Then you get there and find it's been a wasted journey. Particularly with things like live plants this can make a real difference."
(Gary Duckworth - Clapham)
"Hippo boxes are absolutely brilliant. Mine hasn't let me down in the two years I've had it - I find it indispensable"
(Dr Jane Mackay - London www.soundingart.com)

TSA Pre✓™ (Pre Check) Program
Good news for travelers! If you are a frequent flyer on any of the following nine airlines, you may be eligible for the TSA Pre Check Program, which allows you a much faster security screening and a lot less hassle:
- Alaska Airlines
- American Airlines
- Delta
- Hawaiian Airlines
- JetBlue
- Southwest
- United
- US Airways
- Virgin America
To start taking advantage of this unique program, you must submit an application along with a non-refundable $85.00 fee and certain documents confirming your identity. To be eligible, you must be a U.S. Citizen or lawful permanent U.S. resident who has not been convicted of any of the crimes specified on the eligibility requirements. If approved, you will receive a Known Traveler Number, or KTN, which you can then use whenever you book a flight reservation. If you belong to a frequent flyer program for any of the participating airlines, you may enter the KTN into the designated field so it can be saved there for future use. The KTN is valid for five years.
Your boarding pass will indicate that you are a Pre Check qualified traveler and you may go directly to the Pre Check line. Some airports, however, do not yet have such a line, in which case you would proceed through normal security. Currently, over one hundred airports are participating in the Pre Check program.
The perks of this program is that it allows you to bypass some of the lengthy screening procedures. For example, you will not have to take off your shoes, belt, jewelry, sweatshirt or light jacket. You will also be allowed to keep your laptop and liquids in your bag while other travelers have to spend valuable extra minutes extracting those items from their bags and then putting them all back in.
Business travelers are ideal candidates for the TSA Pre Check Program because they tend to take more frequent trips. Participating in the Pre Check Program allows them to be more confident that they will make their flight on time. It also allows them to more efficiently use the time they would otherwise be spending on taking off and then putting back on various items of clothing and accessories. Over time, businessmen and women who travel often for work can end up saving hours of screening time with the Pre Check Program. It will make for a much more pleasant travel experience.
Keep in mind, however, that Pre Check availability and hours of operation may vary based on flight schedules or other factors affecting airline procedures. Always check ahead of time so that you know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

ALBANY — The Chevron Corporation filed a complaint on Tuesday against the New York State comptroller, Thomas P. DiNapoli, with the state ethics commission, the latest round in its battle over an Ecuadorean lawsuit stemming from pollution of the Amazon rain forest.
Mr. DiNapoli and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo have received tens of thousands of dollars in contributions from people with ties to lawyers representing Ecuadorean villagers who brought the litigation against Chevron. Both officials have also raised questions about Chevron's conduct — Mr. Cuomo in his previous job as attorney general, and Mr. DiNapoli in his role as sole trustee of the state's $153 billion pension fund.
The complaint, which was made to the Joint Commission on Public Ethics, claims that Mr. DiNapoli and the plaintiffs' lawyers had "an illicit and unethical quid pro quo arrangement" in which the comptroller received campaign donations and other benefits in exchange for pressuring Chevron. The complaint, however, is short on evidence of such an arrangement.
Both Mr. Cuomo's ex-wife, Kerry Kennedy, and Karen Hinton, the wife of a top aide, have been tied to the plaintiffs' lawyers, but the complaint praises him for backing off from pursuing an investigation into Chevron, after outlining his concerns to the company in 2009.
Mr. DiNapoli, however, has maintained his criticism, going so far as having the state pension fund be a sponsor of shareholder resolutions related to the dispute.Continue reading the main story
The original allegations involve Texaco, which once operated as a partner with the Ecuadorean state oil company and has since been acquired by Chevron. Villagers sued in 1993, saying that they had been left with a landscape contaminated by Texaco's oil drilling.
In February 2011, a court in Ecuador reached an $18 billion verdict against Chevron — about $9 billion in damages and twice as much if the company did not apologize within 15 days. Chevron has since called the verdict fraudulent and challenged it in court in the United States.
In July, a federal judge in the United States declined to declare the judgment unenforceable, though he found potential fraud in an expert's report presented by the plaintiffs. Earlier this month, a court in Argentina froze the assets of a local subsidiary of Chevron as it decides whether to enforce the Ecuadorean judgment.
"Mr. DiNapoli's actions serve only his political patrons, not the citizens of the State of New York," said Hewitt Pate, Chevron vice president and general counsel, in a statement. "This type of quid pro quo behavior is an apparent breach of ethical and legal responsibilities that warrants investigation."
Mr. DiNapoli said: "This is a baseless attempt by big oil to intimidate me and it won't work. The allegations are without merit." Graham Erion, a lawyer for the Ecuadorean plaintiffs, called Chevron's action hypocritical.
"Chevron is one of the biggest corporate contributors to political campaigns in the U.S. and exercises its political and legal muscle not only in Washington but in other capitals across the world to get what it wants," he said.
An article in some editions last Wednesday about an ethics complaint brought by Chevron against Thomas P. DiNapoli, the New York State comptroller, misstated one action taken by a United States federal judge in July pertaining to an Ecuadorean court's $18 billion verdict against Chevron in a lawsuit stemming from pollution of the Amazon rain forest. While the judge declined to declare that judgment unenforceable, he did not keep in place an injunction against the ruling; the injunction had already been overturned.

I began my art career as a teenager when my mother's interest in photography became my own. I continued my education in photography in college at Saint Leo University in Florida for fun while obtaining a Biology degree. While in college, I developed a cancerous tumor that had to be removed necessitating a semester off from school. During my recovery at home, my mother insisted I attend an oil painting class she and my sister were taking. I reluctantly went, but it became one of the best things I had ever done. Photography and painting have become my most favorite pastimes. I have expanded my interests and work to include acrylics, watercolor, and mixed media.

*The perfect Cabernet to adorn your dinner table and wow your guests - all for a cheekily reasonable £15.95! Shh, no one will suspect a thing...* Astonishingly good value Cabernet Sauvignon from California's less fashionable side.
This is a wonderfully bold style of Cabernet – it's got such flair! Both the nose and the mouthfeel are rich and brooding, yet the bright, juicy fruit character keeps it fresh. Lots of red cherry, blackcurrant, blackberry and a cheeky, sweeter hint of blueberry. Tempting wafts of sweet tobacco and cinnamon. Cherries dipped in dark chocolate. In contrast to all of this fruity plushness and decadence there rises an altogether more savoury note of tomato leaf – it is so attractive, and it elevates this drinking experience into a more serious arena. Dried cherries and redcurrants; an unexpected but not unwelcome hint of dandelion and burdock. Utterly staggering quality for its price point.
13%. Drink now – 2022.

Is This You?
Work with me
Want to get your life back on track after cancer treatment?
Wouldn't it be lovely to walk into your kitchen and actually remember why you're there?
To ask a question and not totally forget what you asked whilst someone is in the middle of answering it?
Wouldn't it be great to feel less anxious about your health and about the future in general.
How would it feel to have more energy and stamina, so you could handle the demands of your busy life? To be less fearful about recurrence?
But right now...
Things are tough. You're in crisis
You feel exhausted and unable to cope with life. Your colleagues don't know that you crash on the sofa every evening as soon as you get home.
You're frustrated as you can't remember even simple things that used to pose no problem for you
You're constantly fearful of a recurrence and have lost faith in your body and in your health
You don't recognize yourself as you've gained weight and the medication you're on has led to hot flushes and joint pain which nobody understands.
You're worried that things are going to be like this forever
You may have already tried...
Asking your GP for help and you may have been offered anti-depressants or anti-anxiety medications which haven't really helped.
Scaling back your work commitments or reducing your hours, or perhaps you've had to give up work altogether.
Joining a slimming club or support group, but you're still struggling
Asking those around you for help but you don't like being so reliant on others
I understand how frustrated you are with things right now as I've stood where you're standing.
I know how awful it is to have zero stamina so you experience huge energy crashes whenever you unintentionally overexert yourself. It can take days to recover from seemingly modest activities.
I get how debilitating the hot flushes can be, the way you go from boiling hot to freezing cold with the dampness. Having to carry spare clothes around with you everywhere.
I understand the joint pains which make it difficult for you to exercise so now you're dealing with weight gain as well, which makes you miserable.
Life with these side effects is TOUGH.
You want your old life back, please.
That's why I founded Healthier by Nature. To help fabulous women just like you look and feel well again.
Working with me you'll get a personalised Diet and Lifestyle Plan outlining the specific steps you'll need to take to shift you from frazzled and fatigued to energised and clear-headed with your life firmly back on track.
Here's what you can expect when you work with me
Within 48 hours of your consultation you'll receive your tailored Diet and Lifestyle Plan, along with suggestions for supplements and any additional laboratory testing, where appropriate. These are the tools you'll need to start on your journey back to health.
The best thing about this service is that it's tailored to your specific needs and preferences. If you're someone who doesn't like or who can't accommodate fast-change then we'll go at
pace. Just as each person's response to cancer treatment is individual, everyone's journey back to health is individual and your journey is yours alone.
You can't fall behind your own journey.
This could be a great fit for you if:
You're ready to take charge of your health with the right guidance and support
You're willing to put your health and your needs at the top of your list of priorities whilst on the Plan
You understand that change can be hard but you're committed to working towards your health goals
You want effective strategies for boosting your energy, stamina and mental clarity
This may not be a good fit for you if:
You're not really able to change your diet at the moment
You aren't comfortable with the idea of changing your diet or lifestyle – it feels too scary (a
dietary analysis
might be a better place to start).
You're looking for a quick fix (i.e. you want things to be different, but you don't want to do anything different).
You'd like a pill for your ill. Something to relieve your symptoms rather than addressing their root cause. I totally get why you'd feel this way but it would mean this probably isn't for you right now.

3 months after seeing Sian for the first time and I've rejoined my pub quiz team, which I'm thrilled about. I'd really missed it.
Denise S., Wiltshire
Before finding Sian, I was contemplating early retirement. I love my job and really wanted to find a way back to it, but felt too exhausted to even consider it. I was 2 months out from treatment but the fatigue just hadn't lifted as I'd expected it to. With ongoing support, I'm now back at work part-time and really enjoying the social side of it. I wish I'd found Sian sooner!
Gillian D., Surrey
I was very reliant on post-it notes, a daily diary and to-do lists before I was introduced to Sian. I honestly thought the treatments had left me with dementia. It was very frightening and my husband didn't like to leave me alone, and I didn't like the worry I was causing him. I'm pleased to say that things are improving a
nd the brain fog is slowly lifting. I still have my moments, but we've both noticed a positive change and I can't thank you enough for that.

Hello, Kitty: I'm a lesbian dating a woman who was born with both male and female parts. I learned about her "situation" after we'd been dating for two months. I'm not angry or upset -- I'm falling in love with her. She says that she loves me too, but she doesn't show it. She's always mean to me, calling me names and saying that I'm bisexual because she has a penis and I'm interested in sexing her. And she's right. I am, but only because it's her. I don't see her as a man. What do I do? Should I stay or go? She's just really evil to me. She says that she only says those things because she gets mad. I believe she means what she says. Please help Kitty, I'm so confused.

text: TV / Video Why Apple Rental Plan Alienates Most Studios By Andrew Wallenstein|September 2, 2010Share By Andrew Wallenstein|September 2, 2010Share Don't look for rival studios to join Disney and News Corp. for Apple's announced 99-cent TV rental offering anytime soon. Unveiling a new Apple TV product Wednesday, Steve Jobs said he had hopes for "other studios to see the light." But sources at other content companies believe Disney and Fox are moving like moths to a flame. At issue is the 99-cent price tag that represents a steep discount from the TV episodes already offered on iTunes. Multiple executives described it as an unacceptable devaluation of the content that puts in jeopardy the so-called "downstream" windows crucial to generating profit including DVD and syndication. One studio chief drew a comparison between the new arrangement and the damage done to the music industry when Apple disaggregated the traditional album-oriented business model in favor of a singles-centric approach. "If we head down this path, we're starting down the same slippery slope where the music business went," the executive warned. While few were surprised that Disney again joined forces with Apple, the emergence of News Corp. as a willing partner this week raised eyebrows. The deal reportedly was made at the behest of Rupert Murdoch, who overruled the objections of News Corp. executives because he is trying to advance his company's interests in the digital news business. Noting the lockstep in which Disney CEO Bob Iger has moved with Jobs, the company's largest shareholder, one exec cracked, "If Steve Jobs jumped off a cliff, Iger would hold his ankles on the way down." Cable and satellite operators could be particularly steamed as TV networks are perennially embroiled in tough negotiations with them over retransmission fees for the same content they are making available to the competition. ABC is now engaged in such a standoff with Time Warner Cable, which likely will count Apple TV as a threat to its upcoming TV Everywhere initiative. Although Apple is touting the inclusion of Disney and News Corp., the holdouts are hoping their absence from iTunes rentals will weaken it. Already they're taking pride in having successfully prevented some of Apple's previous efforts, including a 99-cent download (as opposed to rental streaming) and a bundled monthly offering. The holding out of Viacom, CBS, NBCU, Warner Bros. and others could end up marking a stark contrast to what transpired when Apple introduced downloadable TV episodes five years ago: Disney was on board as an inaugural partner, and eventually every other conglomerate in the TV business came on board. One studio exec noted that increasing concerns about digital monetization in the creative community, such as Modern Family creator Steve Levitan's recent comments to THR regarding Hulu, could provide an edge over Disney and Fox when it comes to signing top writing and producing talent. Another competitive edge also could come to the growing list of services competing with Apple to bypass multichannel providers into U.S. living rooms, from video game consoles to Internet-connected TV sets. A few execs highlighted Netflix's recent syndication deal with Warner Bros. for TV content including Nip/Tuck as an exemplary model (Netflix also will be accessible via Apple TV). The addition of 99-cent rentals also is prompting bewilderment by observers who note the increasing vulnerability to cannibalization among digital platforms devoted to the same programs. Disney strategy in particular was described by one rival exec as "schizophrenic," considering its series pop up on ABC.com, Hulu, Hulu's iPad offering and now Apple TV. The downside of Apple's rental model also was recognized on Wall Street, where Evercore Partners analyst Alan Gould noted: "We recognize the studios have to provide a reasonably priced online version of their content or illegal downloads will become pervasive. However, that does not mean the studios have to provide the product at a long-term money-losing price." Share http://adweek.it/2k8B62J copy Adweek Adweek

GMC has their own plan with the new 2018 GMC Terrain. After the existence since 2009 and the company has sold around 700,000 units, they decided that they want to do something different for the 2018 model. The new one will be competing against the Rav4 from Toyota, CR-V from Honda, Cherokee from Jeep, and Escape from Ford. It seems that the company is determined to deliver the best for the new Terrain, expecting that the refreshed styling will improve sales.
Basically, the new 2018 GMC Terrain won't be completely different from the current ride, in terms that it won't come with a new construction and design that are completely different from the signature style. From the design, the Terrain will be coming with a pronounced sculpts on the lines and curves, topped with redesigned light and grille design. To improve performance and efficiency, the overall construction is changed to improve aerodynamics – as well as increasing efficiency, control, and handle, and also reduce the cabin noise.
If everything goes as planned, the new Terrain will be introduced during Detroit Motor Show 2017, complete with the new appearance and also different engine options. Some of the popular trims will be available with the signature style. The Premium Denali, for instance, will be coming with satin grille with chrome, LED headlights, chrome covers, and also 19 inch wheels. The price should start from around $24,000.
For the new 2018 GMC Terrain, there will be three different options: two gas turbocharged engines and one turbo diesel engine. The four cylinder turbocharged 1.5 liter engine is producing 170 hp of power while the I4 turbocharged 2.0 liter engine is delivering 252 hp of power. The gas engines will be coming with auto nine speed transmission. Meanwhile, the four cylinder diesel turbocharged 1.6 liter engine will deliver 137 hp of power, paired with auto six speed gearbox.
The Terrain will have both all wheel and also front wheel driving system, with the AWD model coming along for the optional choice.
Improved comfort and functionality are becoming the focus of the improvement too. With soft and premium surfaces and also aluminum trim, and also more accessible center console, you can expect an improved feature. There are more improvements and features to expect from the ride, including the 8 inch infotainment system and 4G connectivity. What do you think of the new 2018 GMC Terrain?

I have just stripped one of my old cabs down and had it powder coated. It has everything new on it from sideboards to bearings, chains to dampers. It was a lot of fun to do and it looks beautiful. Big thank you to H7 Engineering who make the Maxpro Ecotaxi. They shipped parts to me in less than a week and were really interested in the bike since it is chasis # 6. One of the very first mark 1 bikes that Maxpro made for London. If only the bikes could tell you how much money they have made and what they've seen.
I think it is 16 years old but now but I have made it brand new again. Happy days.

Learn Away with Scholarships and Grants
You have excellent credentials but is unable pursue your education through lack of funds? Well, what options do you have? The obvious answer is scholarships and grants.
Almost every university in the world offers different options for students to help them continue with their education in spite of the escalating costs of higher education. If you are determined to get the education, money should never be a problem.
The greatest benefit here is that you do not need to repay the scholarships that you earn. There are quite a lot of them out there, provided you are willing to look out for them.
It's not just academic excellence that assure you of good scholarships. Talents and skills in other fields are also acknowledged for the award of grants. But mind you, it's not just your word. You have to present authentic proofs to support your claim.
In addition to universities, scholarships and grants are offered by government agencies and private institutions too. When it comes to federal grants, the grants are decided mainly by the financial status of the student. This factor is decided by the annual income of the student's family.
Are you a promising athlete? You can be eligible for scholarships and grants provided you have a requisite minimum grade point average. After all, the purpose of joining the college is to study though you would be actively pursuing your sports too.
Colleges and certain private agencies give scholarships and grants to students to pupil who show noteworthy achievements and interest in any specific field of study.
Remember, most of the grant providers are very careful about giving it to the deserving ones. And they scrutinize your application with eagle eyes to weed out the undeserving. So, be very careful while wading through that vast ocean of application forms. A minor error which you may think is insignificant could decide your fate. Paying attention to detail should be your mantra here.
Educational scholarships and grants would help you to scale your educational goals provided you are willing to sweat over it a bit.

|Photo: Courtesty of Beth Ann Chiles of It's Just Life
OK~ Oreo cookies are not something that I indulge in. But, due to the fact that the North Iowa Bloggers gathered for a sampling of the new Oreo flavors, I may now need to indulge. We did not sample the so-called "normal" Oreos that you find on the shelves all year long. We were able to find eight Fall flavors. We sampled all of them and came up with a favorite.
Beth Ann of It's Just Life, hosted our North Iowa Blogger get together. She rolled out the red carpet for us bloggers and had set up an awesome "taste testing" station. Isn't this cool?
I know that you all want to know what these results were. Well, I do believe we all had similar taste buds. We did end up with several partial Berry Oreos, which landed in the trash! Amy, of Modern Rural Living was ready to chuck this one!
My least favorite was the Berry- Quite honestly I thought they tasted like pink medicine! I also think it's fair to say that others felt the same way. Katy of Learning As I Go expressed the dislike as much as I did!
Next, I would have to say Pumpkin Spice and Rootbeer did absolutely nothing for me. I would NEVER pay money for these. The Pumpkin Spice really had a strange taste- and the Rootbeer tasted good, until my tasted buds had time to absorb the bitter taste! Yes, I said bitter, and that's how it was.
Vanilla and Chocolate Birthday Cake tasted just like regular Oreos to me! They scored an even "like."
The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough was OK, nothing have to go running to the store to buy- but they were edible.
The Peanut Butter Oreo Cookies won overall- with all of the North Iowa Bloggers for the best tasting! Val of Corn, Beans, Pigs and Kids LOVED the Peanut Butter Oreos!
Although my favorite was Caramel Apple. I can say that I will buy these- I thought they were fantastic. Jeni of Jeni Eats is the food blogger of our group and I am anxious to see if she will come up with some awesome recipes from any of these!
So, tell me, are you an avid Oreo fan? What flavors are your favorite? The North Iowa Bloggers are always up to trying new products- Remember all of those Lays chips they tasted? This group is always up for fun. After All, It's All In a Mom's Day, Right?
* The North Iowa Bloggers purchased the Oreos and the opinions expressed here are mine and those of the North Iowa Bloggers.

Glossary of Terms
Frequency capping is a fancy word used by industry experts meaning the total number of times any given piece of content is viewable by any one person.
For example, if you create a Swift Post and set the frequency capping to 3, the maximum number of times any given user will be able to see that post is 3 separate times. After that, it will be placed back to it's normal place in your feed.
Impressions are how many times a piece of content has been viewed.
Geo targeting refers the ability to place restrictions a post in a manner that only certain visitors from any given location or locations will be able to see it.
For example, if an advertiser would like to run a sponsored post on your site for a wedding expo in Colorado. I doesn't make sense for the advertiser to pay for the impressions coming for visitors in New York.
Geo targeting allows for highly targeted and effects advertising.

Nurse Practitioner Salaries in Utah - UT
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a median annual wage of $53,000-60,000 for registered nurses throughout the state of Utah. This is slightly lower than the national RN median wage of $63,750.
There are a couple of important factors to keep in mind when researching nurse practitioner salaries in Utah. First, the BLS does not make a distinction between registered nurses and nurse practitioners, despite the necessary advanced degree for the latter profession. Therefore, it may be beneficial to take into account the wages in the 75th and 90th percentile, which go as high as $81,250. Second, statehealthfacts.org reports that Utah's median annual income is $58,722. Therefore, a nurse practitioner salary in Utah will generally fall at or above the average income for the state.
The median wage throughout Utah varies from city to city. Typically, the larger the city, the higher the wage a nurse practitioner will earn. It is important to take into account the cost of living in various cities and suburbs when deciding to pursue a career as a nurse practitioner in Utah. Salt Lake City boasts the highest annual median wage, followed by Provo. In addition, the West-Central or Northern nonmetropolitan areas of Utah report a higher median wage than the rest of the state.
